I have a set of Volk GT7 wheels that I had on my G35. I didn't think they would fit the IS but after seeing someone on here put a set of 370Z wheels on an IS I am wondering if they would now. Does anyone know? They are 19x9 and 19x10 I think. I have a IS250.

Great thanks. I have staggered wheels but they are only an inch difference to I am going to give it a try. I will have to get some TPMS ordered though since my G35 didn't have them.

I just found the old thread from the guy I bought them from on g35driver and they are:
19 x 8.5 +23 on 245/35
19 x 9.5 +24 on 275/30
Where is the best place to get TPMS? Used ones on ebay?
19 x 8.5 +23 on 245/35

i used to have a set of GT7's on my IS350 the specs were a tad off from what i wanted so i ended up selling.
-19x8.5 +42 front and back.
-Front tires-225/40ZR19
-Back tires-245/40ZR19
i had to use a spacer to clear the brakes and the front rubbed while turning.
also i was on stock suspension bumps in the road caused rubbing as well.

The lower offset will give me more clearance correct or will I be rubbing with these? I am not lowered right now but might in the future.

Someone who knows correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe that because you have a more aggressive offset than I did that you will be able to clear your brakes. Only because offset is basically pushing or pulling the barrel of the wheel in or out, not having anything to do with how close the spokes are to the brake system.

Well they cleared my brakes on my G and I am sure the brakes were much larger than the ones on the IS250. I am more concerned about rubbing though. I wouldn't go out and buy rims with these specs for the IS but since I already have them I thought they would be worth a shot. If not I will sell them on g35driver but it will probably be hard to let the wife let me turn around and get another set.
